tron simulation night...

Post by 2020 »

the 2020 team challenge server
has one night which is open to a kind of competition:
to provide the best settings to most accurately simulate the film tron...

i remember zman tried to fiddle about with the code
so that people could not longer fit into small spaces
that kind of thing
and perhaps instead of breaks
booster
which is apparently what is happening in the film

anybody got any ideas?
write the necessary coding and settings
and they can reconfigure 2020 team challenge for the night...
:D

Zero rubber. zero cycle accel.
The 2 main features that set armagetron apart from the other tron clones.

Download a copy of gltron, that's far more faithful to the film than armagetron ever was.
You will see though, it gets old very quickly.

An interesting experiment nevertheless, these settings will require great timing and technique. I'll certainly have a go.

I've setup classic play like this a couple of times. It's very interesting.
